According to the Cook Children’s website, “The Prayer Bear Program began in 1997 as a way for local faith communities and organizations to support Cook Children’s patients and families through prayer. On average, over 300 bears are delivered to patients across the Medical Center each week!” An informational video about the program may be found by clicking here:
